Crazy Bump

I don't know if anyone has found this before, but my dad recently showed me it. Great program for creating normal maps and much more. Very simple to use.

Looks sweet, downloading now

great find! ill definetly get this when i start mapping again +rep

Look like it would save an enormous amount of time; awesome find!

used it for ages.

it's a nice tool, but it comes down to doing the same thing as Nvidia's normalmapping plugin.

the normalmap to heightmap function doesn't work for shit btw, don't use it.
i helped the guy developing it a bit with that.

but yeah, if you're used to the Nvidia plugin for photoshop, this is obsolete, but this has a batch-function, so meh.

also, i hate the thing, because there's no back-button. if you let it search low-frequency detail, and you hate the result, you're fucked, and have to do it all over again. not sure if he added that yet though, so i might be wrong.

oh yeah, i've used this for a while. It's been handy when i'm too lazy to boot up photoshop for the nvidia plugin, it can make normal maps a lot quicker because you can tube the settings easily.

I tried it, it didn't do the job as well as I hoped, but it was ok I guess. Easier then making them yourself thats for sure...

Hey what the hell, looks like its worth a try.
